Hi B-Greekers,
When hHGEOMAI is used in the sense "to esteem" we see that it usually is
modified with an attributive, as...
Phil. 2:3 "...hHGOUMENOI hUPERECONTAS hEAUTWN"
or 1 Thess. 5:13 "hHGEISTHAI ... hUPEREKPERISSOU"
Did hHGEOMAI without an attributive word added ever (in canonical,
non-canonical or classic) have the meaning "to esteem" in the sense that
we say in English: "He was esteemed by his colleagues...", where it is
*understood* that he was "esteemed highly" ?
Thanks again!
